00046  |   Description:
00047  |      Timer sensors trigger repeatedly at regular
00048  |      intervals, starting at a given base time. By default, the base
00049  |      time is the current time (at the time the sensor is scheduled or
00050  |      rescheduled) and the interval is 1/30 of a second; both of these
00051  |      values may be changed.  If more than one interval passes while
00052  |      sensors are being triggered, then the extra intervals will be lost
00053  |      (timers always reschedule themselves to occur in the future).
00054  |      If more than one timer has expired (and therefore more than one
00055  |      needs to be rescheduled), all of them are first triggered, and are
00056  |      then rescheduled relative to the current time.  The reschedule()
00057  |      method is called by the sensor manager to accomplish this (see the
00058  |      comments there about saturating the timer queue).
